Glasgow University

A University which Glaswegians are too dumb to get into. It is often full of Tory lads that eat kettle crisps and listen to dreadful music such as Sam Fender and the Coldplay and believe they are interesting but really everyone thinks you’re a dick

Ian: OK Tory!

University of Glasgow

*A fully comprehensive university located in the city of Glasgow, Scotland
*Glasgow is the 2nd oldest university in Scotland (founded in 1451) and the 4th oldest university in the english speaking world.
*Rated 81st in the world, far ahead of any other scottish university.
*Located in the attractive west end of the city, the main building is in the collegiate gothic style, with two attractive quads.
*Has the unique position of having two separate student unions: the Glasgow University Union and the Queen Margaret Union, although membership in one denies the right of membership in another.
Student 1: Fancy heading to the QMU and seeing The Fratellis?
Student 2: Nah, I'm going to head to the GUU and watch the Parliamentary debates.

Glasgow has the best geology (or earth science, as it happens) department in Scotland!

University of Glasgow alumni invented/discovered/pioneered: television, thermodynamics, modern engineering, steam power, the Scottish Parliament etc...
